These councils were called in response to the Cathar and Albigenesian, which were using adulterated vernacular versions of the Bible that produced doctrines that were destructive to society and the individuals.

Oh, you mean more of those groups who your religion tortured and murdered for refusing to bow down to your popes...

And it's good to see a Catholic admit that there were other versions of the scriptures out there being spread about besides the Catholic version...

But you guys always fail to mention that those adulterated versions are the ones the early church fathers mostly quoted...And that those versions became known as the Received Texts, and the Masoretic Texts, and the Majority Texts...

AND, that these are the adulterated texts that Martin Luther used to write his bible in the vernacular...

And those original Greek texts were still being copied in Greek (not Latin) up thru the 10th century and beyond until they were ultimately translated into English...

There's an awful lot you guys leave out in your stories...

Typical. Didn't another Moslem website go on about how they reject Christianity and the Bible as "adulterated texts"?

you don't seem to understand the fact that they did not persevere means they they were not the chosen interpretations...God still has a hand in this and HE ALONE determined that the Catholic church would prevail....remember I will be with you until the end of time....He's still there!!!
